Is there a place called Stora Hof, Skarborgs Lan?

[Gary Olson]

I am researching a woman who was born at Stora Hof, Skarborgs Lan.  This information came from her obitary in Minnesota USA in 1929.  Perhaps the place is wrong.  Could it be Skara?
   Thank you

There is a Stora Hov in Tråvad parish, Skaraborgs län. (Hof is the old spelling of Hov)
Do you need a lookup?

[Gerd Johansson]

Hello Gary! Perhaps I can help you. I have a lot of information about people in Tråvad from 1850 and forward. We shall do a book in Tråvad about all owners to the farms and so on. I have also collected information about the families and just now I work with St Hov. What is the name of th woman and when was she born? Tell me and I will look after her. Stora Hov was a very big farm with a castle in old days. Now a days it belongs to another big farm with Swedens newest castle (Bjertorp) and the castle is gone since 1957.

hej:  I am looking for my family.  My grandfather, Isak Olson, born ca 1845, married Marie Larson. They lived on a farm about l0km from Gullspang, Varmland. They raised six children. My grandmother died ca 1884. My mother, BEATA MARIA ISAACSON, emigrated to the USA in 1898.  Can some kind person tell me how to proceed when I do not know the home parish? I shall be so very grateful for any help.
